An interest in politics demands an interest in the issues outside an individual's imediate circle - an interest in examining the 'bigger picture' and thinking about the impact of political thought and decisions.
Sadly, and increasingly, it's all too easy to adopt the 'they are all the same' approach, which certainly has a strong argument in its favour, but apathy is certainly not the answer.
If the electorate had remained apathetic, we would still have a rampant right-wing Conservative government in power, with the evil witch at its head. We were only saved by a combination of civil unrest, and tretcherous self-interest from her lackeys, but it does prove that if things get bad enough, the electorate can, and will make a stand. That's democracy, and I for one am grateful for it.
Im not that interested to be honest Roger. I vote and make sure im not voting for someone cos 'thats who everyone votes for' but politics isnt something i think about much. I do care what goes on in the world but i dont believe i can do anything about it. Plus its a bit depressing a lot of the time isn't it? Its sometimes just a bit nicer to get right into whats happening in Deperate Housewifes.
i dont vote never have never will
am not intrested in politics
i,m poor i,ll always be poor and thats how this country wants people like me to stay. voting for some toff who's never had to walk around with holes in his shoes aint gona make mine,my kids,my friends or familys life better so i aint gona waste my time
Well ronnie's pathetic "I'm Poor and I can't get rich" rant sums it up nicely. Too many people seem to think that the world owes them a living. News: the world has the opportunity if you can stop whinning an drag yourself up.
Before you start I am from a poor family both my parents where absolute wasters, I grew up on a rough council estate, but I put myself through Uni, I worked I studied, I've got a reasonable life now, I'm not Rich by any means but comfortable.
If you never beleive you can change things then you never will. Look at the country in 1978 locked in a socialist nightmare, even the Tories could not see a way of saving the country from socialism all they thought they could do was slow it's progress, it seemed inevitable that we would become a crushed outpost of the USSR. Then came a group of people who refused to believe that, lead by the mighty Mrs T, she taught us self reliance, she taught us that you can't have money without substance, she led us into a shinning reward system where anyone could improve themselves, no longer inhibited by the protectionist the loony left and the sheer size of the Union paralysed amorphorism. She used harsh medicine yes but she dragged what was a wreck of nation into respectibility.
Forgive them Maggie they will never understand what you did for them.
Well, we could all express our varying opinions, and intellectualise the arguments from extreme right to extreme left wing till we are blue in the face, but who could convince ronnie963 that he should use his vote, and that it would make a difference. I have my own political ideas and they're not too far away from andy-hughes, but I can totally understand the position taken by ronnie. There will always be a section of the electorate who will feel this way; lets just hope the rest of us get it right for them.
Although I believe that one should vote,I understand that it is becoming increasingly diffcult to do so on the grounds of who to vote for,none of the political parties give out the signs that they can be trusted,since the 60's the public have been conned time and time again.Only when the politicians start once again listening to public opinion will trust be restored,this is not going to happen under this government,thats for sure.
i am interested in politics and have been asked to join the local lib dem party, i can honestly say i refrained from joining due to non belief in the party, unfortunatly, there is only 2 in this country worth a sincere vote!
however, it would be pointless for me to do anything because i will have my house burned down with my beliefs, not racist ones, because i am not racist!!
but i think dole dossers should clean the streets and so on, but the great british people no longer want a working class society with upstanding morals. we are to happy to be paid for something we dont deserve.
i used to have a lad working for me who lived with his partner and 2 kids.he could stay at home each week with his idiot of a girlfriend and with his rent claim around �3-�500 per week.
this country's gone bl**dy mad?
